Puebla

As you plan your trip to come and visit us, set aside a weekend for Puebla. It's the closest big city, about two hours by bus, and has the reputation of being the food capitol of Mexico. We ate enough Mole Poblano to last us a while (it's like eating gravy). Puebla is stunningly beautiful, densely packed with architectural gems, and a fun place to explore by foot. It's a little touristy too, but that's all part of the fun!

There are hundreds of churches like this one, all in different colors and styles.

We took the bus tour but got a little tired after the first hour and a half.

It could happen to you.

I liked the subtlety of this brick-job.

Out-of-towner poses with snowy mountains. Mexico City (or the DF as we call it) sits on the other side of that volcanic ridge.
